Clinical application of genetic testing for deafness.

Richard J H Smith1.   

Abstract

Advances in the molecular biology of hearing and deafness have identified many genes essential for normal auditory function. Allele variants of these genes cause nonsyndromic deafness, making mutation screening a valuable test to unequivocally diagnose many different forms of inherited deafness. In this study, genetic testing of GJB2, SLC26A4 and WFS1 is reviewed. Copyright 2004 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
